Police said a man, estimated to be in his 20s, was found wounded at the scene and CPR was administered on him, but he later died at a hospital. He had been at a taco stand that was open when the suspect fired at him from behind.

Police later learned that a boy, believed to be 10 years old, was taken to a hospital by his parents. The boy was apparently hit by a stray bullet in the arm at the same location, but his injuries do not appear to be life threatening, according to Sgt. Christian Hauptmann of the Glendale Police Department.
